Christmas Tradition

When we first got married back in 2000 we wanted to start a tradition that we could do each year at Christmas time. I came up with the idea of decorating clear ornaments with paint on the inside and then paint a theme from the year we want to remember. We have not completed our last four years - I am a bit behind, but I hope to catch up this Christmas. We are working on our themes for the four years we are behind. The themes for the ones above are:

1. Our first year married

2. Stinky house: We moved into a townhouse that smelled like cigarettes galore and the smell didn't leave until we wiped down the walls - they went from yellow to white walls. So much for thinking the walls in the townhouse were painted.

3. The metro in the snow bank - check out my personal blog for that story line.

4. The year we got my dog!!

I hope to finish the other four years before we pack up all the Christmas stuff. If I do, I will post them on here for you to see!
